Wo Plumbing & for Negroes
When a Tennessee land-reform project brought better living conditions for Negro farm workers, the local White Citizens Council intervened. Solon Barraclough, who led the fight for these reforms, is a Harvard-trained economist, now project manager of an agrarian reform project in Santiago, Chile, and professor of agricultural economics at Cornell University. His collaborator, Frances Barraclough, has a graduate degree in economics from Radcliffe.
